PAPER PIECING
Taught by Teri Harter
Saturday, August 22, 10 AM – 4 PM
This class will have 3 different levels of paper piecing techniques — two each of “Easy”, “Intermediate”, and “Advanced” patterns. Come learn the basics and work on as many as you like. Five blocks are approximately 6″ square, and the sixth block is a 12″ square Mariners Compass. Once the blocks are completed, you can turn them into pot holders with the optional $5 kit, which includes enough Insul-Bright, batting and Silver cloth to make three pot holders. The finished pot holders make great hand-made gifts! $40 – Includes 6 patterns
Happy quilting!

Thanks Lisa for promoting my class. I was asked to teach this class by Our Sewing Room and it should be lots of fun. I’ve taken classes with Carol Doak one of the best known authorities on Paper Piecing. She has written many books, and lectures around the world. Thanks again, Teri
